We really hate the name "Players"...
...because it's the name humans gave to us as their toys.
But now the stage has moved above ground,
and the meaning of that name has seriously changed.
We've labeled ourselves with pride.
We're Players!
Come on!
If you're going to kill someone, kill me!
Kouga-kun, stop it already!
You're going to die!
Episode 11: Puppet
Oh, my...
A spectacular guest has joined in!
Run away.
Hurry up and go!
You went to all the trouble of coming, but this farce is over already.
I didn't think you'd come participate with the Players.
Ouch...
This again...
No! Let me go!
Don't you want to meet that guy?
We, the Players, and that guy,
were created by the world-famous Amagi Corporation...
...to produce explosive profits for them.
To all you humans being killed now:
If you're going to blame somebody, blame the Amagis.
It's strange.
Even though I'm in a situation like this,
and even though I'm hurting this much...
This... This feeling!
This is justice!
Is this a Player?!
Shooting Mode.
Enforcing justice!
Are you OK?
I-I'm fine, father.
You didn't pass the test.
I'm ending this!
Then let the girls go.
All right...
I'll release them.
Everyone, you're safe no-
Murderer!
It's your fault!
You murderer!
It's as if you killed them yourself!
Quit it!
What's wrong with you all?
He saved all of you!
I'm not his fan anymore!
Me neither!
Hurry up and let us out of here!
You guys...
Hey, look... Isn't that the elevator?
Let's get out of here.
Yeah.
You go, too.
I can't go.
But...
It's not over yet!
I understand.
Well, then, I'll be leaving ahead of you.
I believe in you.
No matter what anybody says, you're a hero.
You risked your life to save everyone.
Next time we meet, I want a signature for myself!
Wait!
I released them, just as promised...
...from this hell on earth.
Kouga... kun.
You're safe!
I'm glad.
Was anyone else-?
There was someone else there.
It must've been the person you're looking for!
Is it Konoha?
Come on.
Could it be... she's part of the test, too?
But I have no choice but to go!
Konoha might be there!
'Scuse me, let me through!
Police coming through.
What the-?
Sorry.
Jin?
Is that you, old man?
What just happened with you now?
You're one of them!
Monster!
He's in my custody!
I have him in my custody!
You're coming with me.
Sorry, old man.
The president of Amagi Group, Amagi Seizou,
will soon be holding a press conference.
What will he have to say about the incident in Middletown?
I just can't like the Amagis.
Um, can I use your phone?
Sure, be my guest.
We have a broadcast set up on location.
The people who took in Jin sent out a representative from Amagi, too.
They handed over a huge sum of money,
saying it was to fix my face.
But it just kind of pissed me off,
so I gave it all back right there.
So things like that happened, too?
Well, yeah, but you're a good Amagi!
Ah, hello? Okaa-san?
You!
There's a huge flaw in your justice.
What could it be?
Please get out of the way!
You're one of them?
Come in.
It's time for the answer!
I'll go ahead and introduce myself.
I'm Nakata Jirou, and this child is my son Ichirou.
You knew from the start that your little sister wasn't here, right?
You knew that your beloved "evil" was behind this test.
That's why you took my request.
You're wrong!
You're always looking for some evil...
...in order to carry out your justice in a way that feels good.
You let those girls die because you wanted me to be that evil.
I wanted to save all of them! Truly!
What's bad about fighting for that?!
You're mistaken about your objective.
Fighting has become your objective,
and saving others is just a means of justifying that.
When you were fighting the hammer man,
you were having fun, weren't you?
You weren't even thinking about the girls.
And on top of that, that fire that turned you into a hero...
That was nothing more than coincidence.
If you want to save people,
you need to use reliable methods.
In that situation, the correct answer...
...was to abandon the mother!
So I made the correct answer.
What?
Back then, I tried to enforce the correct answer.
But there was one more person there.
I wasn't the one who saved that family!
Are you aiming to be like Kanzaki Jin?
Why didn't you tell the truth?
Because my father refused to let me talk about Jin.
No!
Isn't it because you wanted to be called a hero?
As a result of that, a fault arose in your justice.
You understand now what that fault is.
It's cool-headedness.
I thought something was up with you.
Can you go towards Amagi Tower?
What?
This isn't a taxi, you know!
Don't stand out, or you'll get in trouble like back there.
You don't think I'm creepy?
Huh?
Why do you think I became a detective?
It's 'cause I can't transform myself.
You have to keep a cool head to defeat evil.
What's happening to your face?!
Otou-san!
Your medicine!
Drink your medicine!
You should watch closely.
The way we look now is proof of your father, Amagi Seizou's evil!
My father?!
What are you?
Are you Players?
We're humans!
In order to live, we planted the abilities of the Players...
...in our bodies!
If we hadn't, I wouldn't have been able to bring my son back to life...
...on the day that he died.
I created the Players just like Seizou ordered me to.
I was complacent in his debauchery.
But I opened my eyes to the Players' rebellion,
and I tried to announce it all to the public.
But your father buried me alive...
...in the underground research laboratories.
He thought you'd be lonely by yourself,
so he brought me along,
and I soon used the last of my strength.
But I didn't despair.
I was in the research lab.
I had the technology to bring forth Players.
I wouldn't let my son die!
You fused together a human and a Player?!
Exactly!
I spent a long time with nothing but my hatred for Amagi Seizou keeping me alive,
and vengeance was the only thing I continued to teach my reborn son.
And then he appeared.
The closed laboratories have an extra freebie.
How lucky.
The Players kept us alive.
We'll join forces with anyone who can make the Amagis suffer.
And my dream is to make you suffer like my son Ichirou did.
And then for the final touch,
you'll kill your father with your own hands!
And what would you gain by doing that?!
Nothing!
That's what vengeance is all about.
It leaves behind nothing but an empty void.
But it is cruel!
Your father is the reason for your suffering,
and it's his fault those girls died, too!
Jirou-san, you're getting too worked up.
Hayami-san?!
Don't move.
What're you doing?
Stop this!
If you do anything stupid, I'll die.
Nicely done, Ichirou-kun.
I don't want any harm to come to Kouga-kun.
What did you do to her?!
I'm controlling her with a piece of myself.
Hayami, now's the time to get worked up.
My revenge is entering its final stage.
I understand the way you feel,
but you need to follow my plan.
You're with them?!
I want the Amagi Group.
So I lent a hand to Jirou-san's revenge.
Like I've said countless times,
we're perplexed by this as well.
The words of this man in Middletown calling himself a "Player"...
...were only unfounded rumours.
No!
It's the truth!
What did you say?
I'm telling you it's the truth!
Kabe-san's with me, too.
This is going just as we planned.
Sit down, Kabe!
Everything that that "Player" said was the truth!
Up until now, he's told me all kinds of classified information about the company.
But...
Even now the president is conspiring together with the Players,
and he's assisting in their activities by providing funding.
The proof's in here!
That tragedy in Middletown was a farce put on by the president and the Players!
Furthermore, he's trying to make even more profits for himself...
...by creating this mayhem so he can sell his company's weapons to the world!
Kabe!
When it comes to people knowing secrets, the fewer the better.
I proclaim this to be truth with my own death!
He was possessed by these wild delusions!
He doesn't even lament the death of his closest underling.
That's the kind of person he is... Evil!
If you don't have the will to kill him, I'll use a bug.
You can't use a bug!
I want Kouga-kun to be a hero.
What are you trying to make me do?!
A hero's job!
I like you.
So that's why I've prepared the ultimate evil to be your opponent.
If you can take down the president, you'll become the greatest hero.
But then again, as far as I'm concerned,
there's no need to use a bug since I could just control you using Alphas.
Don't disgrace Alphas!
Cutting Mode!
Cutting Mode.
Shooting Mode.
Look what you've done...
I thought of you like an older brother.
The puppet should've acted like a puppet...
This is...
You regained consciousness?
Good.
Does anything hurt?
No, I'm fine.
Kouga-kun!
How did you know I was here?
A little while back, the system with information about your location came back online all of a sudden.
It was really close, so we rushed over here.
The air booster's been implemented, too.
You can make it to the press conference really quickly!
Yeah, yeah, time for the second act to start!
I thought you'd come, monster.
Fire!
That won't have any effect.
How mean of you.
Aren't we supposed to be friends?
The Players are there!
This is my fight.
Disengage the limiter.
What? The backlash will be too strong!
It'll put too much of a burden on you with how your body is now!
I have to resign myself to a long fight.
I want to use all of Alphas's strength.
Well then, as the Players' representative,
I'll hold a Q&A session!
Who has questions for me?
I have one!
That guy!
He's the terrorist who destroyed the Amagi house!
Can you please stay out of this?
I won't let you do whatever you want anymore.
I'll kill you.
You think you can do it?
While you're white?
You're worthless without the red stone.
I wouldn't mind dying...
...if you became complete.
